Do you have any unused children’s books laying around? If so, please consider donating them to the CKI club's annual book drive, benefiting children and families of the Western Farm Worker’s Association. We are accepting book donations for grades Pre-K through 12th grade with a particularly high need for Spanish-language literature.

It’s that time of year again! We're starting to plan the annual Boxer Winter Holiday Social, and we need your help to make this year's event the best one yet. This is a great opportunity to help organize a fun, multi-campus event for all our staff and faculty to connect and celebrate the season (and the end of the Fall Semester).

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers to join a short-term planning committee. We'll be working together to organize all the exciting details, including food, games, and, of course, the popular ugly sweater judging contest. Interested in joining the planning team? Please email staffsenate@pacificu.edu.

There are connections between democracy and every single field of study at Pacific. Your major is on the ballot, and your voice is critical. Stop by the UC from 12:00pm-1:30pm on Wednesday, November 29 to learn how your major impacts (and is impacted by) elected officials and public policy. Ballots for the November 4 election are already in the mail - now is the time to make a plan to vote, and we can help!
